Description
Austrian artist Maria Lassnig (1919-2014) is considered one of the most important European artists of the last century. Over her decades-long career, she produced an extensive and singular oeuvre in the fields of painting, drawing, and graphic reproductions, with intermittent excursions into (animation) film and sculpture.
At the centre of her work are visualisations of physical perceptions, or so-called body-awareness pictures. Her painstaking self-analyses are also expressed in numerous self-portraits. Here, Brigitte Hausmann presents works by Maria Lassnig in the collection of Helmut Klewan, her gallerist for over three decades. Forty works from Lassnig’s various creative phases were selected for the exhibition in Berlin. Text in English and German.
